Beginner Questions

[Arun Govind]

I've heard that RTEMS BSP contains all the needed drivers for a particular board. And the mailing list contains a number of queries regarding driver related issues on particular boards. Again as a beginner, which port is known to have less such issues with boards?

thanks
Arun
